Spring Break

Snap back to reality....


We were talking the other day and realized that we've only been in school for 7 and a half days in one month's time (including Spring Break). I have enjoyed the time off, but I am excited to get back in the classroom and finish out this school year.


Last week was our Spring Break. In the past four years I've lived in Tennessee I have YET to know why they take Spring Break before it's even technically Spring. Whatever. Anyitsstillcold, we had a good one nonetheless.


We had Camden the first weekend of Spring Break. We started our weekend running errands and playing at home while Jack attended a couple of AdvoCare meetings. We read books, played on the iPad, and watched (of course) Ninja Turtles due to the yucky rain and he didn't seem to be feeling well. Sunday was B-E-A-Utiful and everyone was feeling much better! Soccer was played, cars were washed, and we even did a little yard work. Future reference- Camden hates yard work. Even if it's something as simple as picking up sticks and putting them in the brush pile out back. He just wasn't having it.



We had baseball games Monday and Tuesday (lost them both- BOO.) Wednesday it was time to head to Georgia. We got there just in time to visit my sister and her husband before church. Jon was just about to cut the grass so I made him a Spark so he'd have the energy he'd need  get the job done. They have a new house and a HUGE yard.. He LOVED it. The next day he told us "I cut the grass, I cleaned the nursery, organized the closet, rode my exercise bike...I couldn't stop!" Needless to say he loved Spark! Thursday we ate lunch at Mossy Creek Elementary with my sweet Ryleebug. She made sure we knew EXACTLY what time to be there (11:17AM, KayKay). Little goof didn't eat a bite of her food except for her ice cream Jack bought her.



Fast forward to Saturday night- my parents very graciously hosted a wedding shower for us on Saturday. We decorated with bright, Spring colors and flowers. It looked super cute. It was a nice, small gathering of family members and close friends. Jack's parents were even able to drive down from Knoxville to attend, which was a nice surprise for us. Thank you SO much to everyone who did come. Jack and I truly appreciate you all being there. It meant the world to us that you took time out of your busy lives to spend a couple of hours with us while we were in town.



Rewind to Saturday morning- Jack and I wanted some "traditional" wedding pictures, even though nothing about us is "traditional" in any way, shape, form or fashion. We got all fancied up, and I picked up some cheap (Dollar Tree) flowers and made a surprisingly beautiful bouquet. My sister Carly did an amazing job with the pictures, and it could not have been a more beautiful day. We had several people ask us if we had another ceremony, but nope- these were just for photo-ops. We got married in December. :) Here are some of her amazing pictures (I know most of you have looked at them on Facebook already.) I just can't get over how good they are and how much I just LOVE this husband of mine.
